For the other officers, who are participating in a countywide DUI task force, Petaluma Police Sgt. Ken Savano said they will serve DUI-related warrants, check on habitual DUI offenders who are on probation and then begin patrols looking for DUI suspects.

The task force is conducting an 18-day special enforcement on DUI, and after the sixth day — Wednesday — officers had arrested 55 suspected drunken drivers.
